John K. Samson is a talk-singing sober leftist vegetarian Quaker from Winnipeg, Treaty One Territory, where he lives with his partner and fellow songwriter,
Christine Fellows, and helps run a curling league and a chapter of Book Clubs for Inmates.

Kevin Devine seems intent on one-upping himself with each release of his Devinyl Splits series. On past releases of these seven-inches, the Brooklyn native
has handed the record’s flipside to Tigers Jaw, Craig Finn of The Hold Steady,
and most recently David Bazan of Pedro the Lion.
On the series’ latest release, he’s landed a true Canadian legend, The Weakerthans'
John K. Samson.
